And now that we've been firmly back in Canada for a week, it was only right that the weariness that we gained on the trip, should now catch up to us. Join me this week, as I recuperate from a cold, for an “extra-low” voice edition of Canada, as I see it.

This week I'm looking at Orange Shirt Day, also known as the Day of Truth and Reconciliation.

I mention a couple of addresses in the pod.

I encourage you to contact me at [email protected] – and let me know - I'll mention you on the show (unless you don't want me to) – and you'll forever be able to say, “I got James to say my name, way back before he was a super celebrity!”
